Which state has the most members in the castboolits forum?

[OS OK]

I've often wondered which state has the most members in this forum? Want to find out too?

Vote for the State in which you reside...sorry I confused a couple of you.

[DerekP Houston]

I've seen quite a few Texans hanging around...

[MusicMan]

Make it a percentage of total population in the state.

[Smoke4320]

I'll bet Texas goes into the lead here with everyone starting to get off work about now! I've noticed lotz-O-Texicans here too.

I know of 8 or 9 members here in our town of 2-K and about 4-5 others within 70 miles of here.:lol:

[CastingFool]

I want a recount!

[OS OK]

Aw spit! I noticed that Cali picked up another member and I said "TeeHee, we got another"...then I scrolled down to Texas and dang if they aren't still ahead!..."Aw spit!"

DerekP_Houston is up to something for sure! Prolly illegal alien voters!

I assume you wanted members to "vote" for the state they currently reside in. The wording could almost be interpreted for us to try to guess the answer.

I think Maine is going to be the winner of at least we'll come in top 50.

So I also am confused, are we supposed to guess which state we believe yas the most members? Or do we vote for the state where we reside? D.C.

PS...checking the tally this morning, it looks like all 11 of us over here who still have guns...has voted!

[mozeppa]

in the lead for now!

what's in the lead?

does it need fluxed again?

[kmrra]

If only 11 of you still have guns it must make trading a drag , I vacationed out there several years ago for 2 weeks , beautiful country , I couldnt live there because of the prices of things there , living in the mid west will spoil you ,.... east coast , west coast , everything is just too blasted high.

Yeah, prices are relative but I prepared myself at a young age to make adequate money when I left the nest...I grew up on the short end of the stick as far as money goes and that left an impression on me. As long as you have enough, what more can you ask for...the Good Lord above watches my 6.

I grew up in Texas, raised by a Christian family and had a Famous Lawman for a Father...that wasn't easy, we never got along! But, as far as the people of a State go, there's none better. A little redneck and steer-neck a little hi-teck-neck, lots of oil-necks but basically freedom loving people with a reverence for the old ways and the old timers.
As a kid, my best memories of conversations about historical events came from old timers like my Great Gramma Mother Minnie...she's from Missouri, been there done that type of lady, her first husband was a bank robber, I can still hear her exclaim, "I had to run him off!"...her daughter Bertie Fay married a James out of Missouri and became my Gramma James, Nanny we called her.
All of my best memories from childhood are from Texas...

If I had the wherewithal...I'd take a sawzall and cut around the California border, kick this state off in the Pacific and drag Texas over here and shove it in place...can't beat the mild climate in the winters and this drought will let up eventually, but I like it here in the mountains...so, I'm dug in and staying put.

[runfiverun]

3? from Idaho

we here in Id. think all these polls are just government agents trying to put our names on a list for future reference, and we ain't fallin for that.

Maybe one of the Moderators will move it over there?...I really would like to get a good turnout on this poll topic. It's been interesting to follow.

If one of you fellas has any sway with the Mods...maybe you could slip them a PM?

Dragon813gt my point is that most members on here seem to feel that everyone in this state hates guns and we don't. Fact is that there are a huge number of shooters in this state.

Well, Derek I thought there were 11 of us in Cali that still had guns...either some leftist have come to their senses or 7 have moved here from who know's where...prolly Mexico!
Anyway you look at it we can form up a full squad now with spares. Yahoo...18 guns left in Cali...:bigsmyl2:

[runfiverun]

anyone else remember when California had gun shops and famous gunsmiths.
I remember shooting trap in San Francisco when you shot the targets out over the Bay.

That would make front page news these days , top it off with using lead shot ....
You would be the # one "bad man" .. on top of the list above the local gang shooters , clubs burning down ,locals running over each other.

Relax, due to the electoral college, our votes count more then theirs. [emoji1]

When all the voting is done, is there an electoral college to be dealt with, or does the popular vote count? Is anybody going to Canada if their state doesn't win?
Seems as if somebody tries to dispute all polls as if they're rigged.

I'm gonna say texas. I may be a bit jaded though. Lol.

Actually, the prettiest, smartest and best all-round women I've ever known are the Texicans...I still can't figure how they get all that woman in those tight sparkled britches they love to wear and dance in at Micky Gilley's...it's a sight to behold. Talk about two puppies tussling in a tow sack...If you've never seen them...put it on your bucket list!

Regardless of where a Texan might currently be living or for how long he has had the misfortune of having to live there, deep down, he's still a Texan. You don't see that sort of thing with most other states.

Them dang Texicans sure are holding a bold lead huh?

[Lonegun1894]

OS OK,
You are definitely very correct, Sir! It's why I haven't found one worth marrying yet. Why is it that a good mold or good gun is easier to find than a good woman?

Of course we're in the lead! I mean, what else am I going to do besides work, cast, load, and shoot? Chase crazy women? I've made that mistake. Playing with a pot of melted alloy is MUCH safer!

Honestly...I can't imagine being youthful again and doing the dating scene. My drop dead beautiful adopted daughter has taken 42 years to get engaged (for the first time too)...she waited so long Mom and I used to worry about her and sometimes try to have conversation on the subject. All we ever got out of Niki was..."Mom or Dad, you wouldn't believe the men that are out there and if I brought one of them home they wouldn't last 10 minutes around Dad!"

[Lonegun1894]

If it makes you feel better, I'm 37, and avoid my parents around the holidays cause they keep giving me the same kind of speech, usually lasting 20 minutes to sometimes an hour, except the "Cliff's Notes" version is "It's time you found a nice girl... It would be nice to have some grand kids... You're gay, aren't you?" Then they get offended when I tell them I can easily find someone to practice giving them grand kids with at the closest bar, but I'd rather it was a woman that is worth keeping around rather than paying child support to and hoping she stays away. For some reason they forget that part. Sounds like you raised a smart daughter.

[shaper]

What about us in the UK?

We will have to put you guys in the UK with Florida. No one will be able to tell the difference.

[jonp]

How about "English Commonwealth Countries" That would take care of England, Canada, Australia, New Zealand etc...

[shaper]

Put them all together and call it the country of Commonwealth. I was going to say something like all of you talk funny anyway, but I decided not to. I have been to Australia, New Zealand, and met my wife in England who was born in Scotland. Loved every minute of each visit. We visited Scotland and my wife introduced me to her relatives. We had a great time talking with one of her uncles. I caught about every 4th word of what he was saying. Would have loved going to a pub with him, especially after he had a couple points. As for Canada, I was stationed in Limestone Maine for three winters. That is close enough to being in Canada.

[robg]

Wish we had Florida's weather and gun laws.

[Reverend Al]

Don't feel bad ... by the time my Uncle Harry from England came out to Canada with his wife Elsie my Dad had lost most of his English accent, but my Uncle Harry retained his for the rest of his life. Most of the time when he spoke I couldn't understand him and my Dad had to translate for me ... and he was speaking English! :-)

Just put in a vote for Pa. Funny, out of 600 members at the range I belong to, I have only come across 3 that cast, and one of them only casts round balls for a muzzleloader.

There are 1,100 and 1,000 respectively at the two ranges I use the most. I have yet to come across anyone else that casts. Reloaded may number about ten if I had to count. Both are rather rare by me.

Interesting. I shoot military and sporting rifle matches here in the winter. It appears over 50% cast their own bullets.But then again, all of these guys are serious hobby and competition shooters.

This is a great thread ! Thank you OS OK ! LOL , not gloating because MY STATE is winning lol , population/square footage/gun friendly most likely Texas will 'triumph" . Smaller states are hard pressed to come up with the numbers .

We understand there are many of us being of like mind and most likely same nature . I am enjoying witnessing our commonality . Thank you .

[OS OK]

Thanks Boaz...I'm glad to see ole Texas in a considerable long lead, however ain't it a gas to see Kalifornia...the most hated State in the Union according to members in this forum...in second place...whoada thunkit?

[Boaz]

It's a contradiction of thought , there are good people in Cali . Always knew that . Thank you for proving it .

[GlockGuy]

OHio here.

It would be interesting to see how those numbers would stack up compared to the population of each state. I'm not motivated to do it though. Probably because Texas would not be in the lead if you figured it that way. :)

For example, figuring it per million people,
South Dakota would be 5.86, Texas would be 2.45, Arkansas would be 2.96, and Arizona would be 2.97.

The advantage would be towards the states with lower, more rural populations.

We know people in California that are God fearing rock ribbed Conservatives- they're just not in charge. Beautiful state; nice people- just stay out of LA and SF and you'll be ok. Best, Thomas.

Don't worry TbG...I'm backed up to the Sierras and dug in and have a great field of fire across the valley below...this is my Alamo.
We call our little rancho...'Trails End' ...it's our last stand either way, I ain't moving another inch, it's live free or die right here.

If you went by population, Alaska would even have a chance.

Yep, they would be 10.86 per million population using the current totals.

I guess ya'll have to have *something* to do on those long cold winter nights. :)

[OS OK]

Navy...you keep on about this percentage of population thing and...IIRC'ly you are the numbers fella from other posts I've read...who is it that has the most members in light of this?
You Texicans might as well share the spotlight...sure ain't gonna hurt none.

[Lonegun1894]

OS OK,
If I remember right, you're one of us anyway, so no need to "share the spot light"!

Well, the existing poll tells us who has the *most* members. I was just pointing out that if you looked at it with respect to members per some amount of population, then the numbers could shift quite a bit. Texas and California have large urban areas where the liberals are more likely to live and as such, they are less likely to own guns. Of course, California is even worse than Texas in that regard. And then you get to consider how many of those who own guns actually reload for them, much less actually cast bullets to reload. Once you factor in the percentage of people living in apartments (which you see a lot of in high density urban areas) who are less likely to be smelting lead or casting, our numbers go down even more. Areas that have a strong gun culture and are more rural would seem to have the advantage if you can pair that with a state with low population that is mostly rural.

In the end though, with statistics, you can mine the data however you want to get the conclusion that you wanted in the first place. :)

[OS OK]

Well, I agree with all that...but...even if I could figure some other way to analyze it, it'd prolly be over my head to make a formulae...guess I'll have to be satisfied with what we have here...it was truly enlightening for me, I knew y'all Texicans would dominate but I never thought we out here on the Leftist-coast would pull up even close to second.

That alone has prolly put a burr in some britches around here . . . :bigsmyl2:

I forgot to mention that internet connectivity and the tendency of the people in an area to frequent such forums might have some effect on the numbers.

With Alaska, it might have something to do with those long winter nights and needing something to pass the time. :)

It would be easy enough to create a chart that gave the number of members per 1M population, but explaining *why* some of those numbers worked out the way that they did, that gets a lot more subjective. You have to start looking at everything from demographics to gun culture to weather to internet connectivity. It gets a lot more complicated when you try to determine *why* something happened.

On a side note, up until 1934, Texas had a greater population than California. At that time, they both had around 6.05-6.06M people. Today, Texas has 70% of the population that California has.

[OS OK]

I don't know about Brownsville but San Diego has been a wide open door for decades...could be part of our increase over y'alls.
In the early 70's and as a Journeyman Electrician I was getting $8 in Houston and I could get $15 in SoCal...another part of the increase too.

As a side note regarding that wall...I listened to a fella on a call in show just now saying he thought a set of high-speed rails on top of that wall or within the wall would be a good idea for shipping goods from the Gulf to the Pacific and selected points in-between, possibly passengers included from both sides as long as you can keep the people separated at the stops...perhaps passenger cars that open to the North or South exclusively...not a bad idea?

That would be a lot more expensive than what they are using currently in a lot of the places:

At some point though, maybe we should ask ourselves, "Is the wall there to keep *them* out, or *us* in?"

[OS OK]

I would imagine that a clever post on the 'Mexican Wall' would run for days and foment a 'spitting contest' here in this forum...there's a lot of heated emotion wrapped up in that little fence.

Maybe they could circumvent the wall with a laser beam or two...sheriff, judge and executioner all wrapped up in one little light beam...put some warning signs out and let everyone choose for themselves to stay put or not.
Tunnels? Yep heard that one too...ground penetrating radar will take care of locating the burrowing rats...then a few bunker busters every month can form a few new watering holes.

186364...looking over my East pasture this morning...

If the Globalist don't kill President Trump that wall is going in. Those red clouds in the morning mean more than the weather. A change is-a comming...in this Nation.

I've run 87 many times on the way through Dalhart south out of Colorado and points north and west.

[Boaz]

Not bragging but Texas will win , second largest state with more population than the number one largest (Alaska) . More gun rights ...it's a no brainer . Cali use to be a contender with population and gun rights . Hope the Californians can regain that again . I would love to see California and New York state win out . Would be amazing .

I've heard about that legendary Aggie many times, since I live in Norman. I just wish so many Texans wouldn't send their kids to Oklahoma University to be turned into Social Justice Warriors, half-baked Marxists, and LGBT advocates, since the streets of the town are filled with Texas plates nine months out of the year. Don't let your family members come here for an "education", Texans. Seriously. And that's not just because of the traffic.

it's rigged, it's rigged.
I know of 8 or 9 members here in our town of 2-K and about 4-5 others within 70 miles of here.:lol:

[abunaitoo]

I guess I'm the only one from Hawaii that will admit to it.
Don't really blame them.
Too many damacraps live here.
I'm NOT one of them.
